Problems with Samba fusesmb

[Arron]

Im using the fusesmb, default with Mint XFCE 6. When I browse i get errors as i browse around the folders, and I cant play any media. Most of the time after an error the "Network" folder disappear in my home folder and i need to reboot to get it back.

Is anyone else having problems with it?

Did you fill in the setup part of the fusesmb screen?

I have problems like this if I don't fill in the user and global password correctly. Some windows machines setup sharing with no password and guest user and some need to have a specific user and password to gain access.

I am running Windows now so I can't tell you the exact screens.

I have set the settings, reset and tried again.

The error i get is:

Failed to open directory "Movies".
Software caused connection abort.

Then the network folder disappears till reboot. As well i cant play media files. There is no user settings on the shares, just open shared folders on a Mint 5 xfce box.

Can anyone help?

Same problem here - this was not a problem in Mint 5, so I see it as specific to this version.

This is not the only problem in version 6, I'm actually consider to roll back to version 5, the current version inherited too many problems from *buntu...

Any updates on this? Is there any alternative way to browse the network and use the files on it right now, what does mint flux use? The mount did work for me, but I just change from a few different wifi networks and makes it a pain.
